The greatest.
Born this day, 1945: Drummer and composer Tony Williams in Chicago IL. Joined Miles in 1963 at the age of just 17, to form part of the legendary Second Great Quintet, staying until the end of 1968. An imaginative virtuoso who helped reshape the role of the rhythm section.

Things I'm seeing as a local county chair of the Democratic Party in a red state
1) Lots of average people want to run for office
2) There is no support/infrastructure from the national party to help us help them

A huge night for Democrats:
—They flip Miami's mayorship.
—They flip a state House district in Georgia that had voted Trump by 13%.
—They keep Albuquerque's mayorship, while the liberal faction flips city council.
—And they get big overperformances (+18 & +22) in 2 Florida specials.

Good morning my Friends 🌲🌊🌞
Reaching for the gold ring,
down inside 💫
Gone are the days,
wonderment at your feet.
Puddle splashed,
water creasing, drops of time.
Bent back, aged hand,
Yet eyes alight, like a child 😏
Life may be be sweeter for this,
I don’t know 🧚♂️
Be good, wonder
🙏🏻🐙👽🐦🔥💙🌞❤️🧚♂️💃🐢✌🏻

ICE detained a US citizen who was originally from Somalia.
They grabbed her because they didn’t like her hijab.
She says they sexually assaulted her and said things like “what are you hiding under your hijab”
She was held for 24 hours.

tom constanten's post-dead project, "tarot" by touchstone, late-blossoming baroque jazz psych recorded in '71, spun off from a musical & niftier than i'd expected, a more fully realized version of a voice only glimpsed with the GD. pretty wild gatefold art by (ex country joe) drummer chicken hirsh.
